warm up before ultra sprint...needed to do this as the legs a bit niggly in places

Ultra Sprint Race day at Barry Curtis Park...did 3 courses, then the top four in each grade had a final sprint off...was cool as!! never done this fast thinking, tricky orienteering before :) Loved it!

Map A- did ok...a bit iffy in the maze part, and didnt realise there was an enlarged part on the side of the map till after...oops

Map B- did ok-ish on this one...started running the wrong way to the maze, well realised as soon as i had missed the turn off, so then turned back, so missed a little bit of time there...maze not so great again...just feeling a bit slow i guess :/

Map C- oopsy...worst one out of all of them :S good start, then screwed up coming out of 5, then at 6 i held my SI card in, but it didnt register, so then tried again and it did...so annoying...then stuffed up going to the maze again, ran down wrong track to start off with...so stupid...Maze ok sort of? stuffed up route coming back to the maze for the 2nd time, went long way round and was so confused...:/

slow jog between the races

Final- was a mass start with the top 4, so Laura, Greta, me and Jula... had a new part to the map where there was a big circle with 3 controls in it, and we could get them in any order at that part of the course. We sorted our placings out pretty early (Laura, Greta, me then Jula)...nearly got wrong one at the tree one just before maze for the first time, then got the wrong one just before the maze for the 2nd time, realised, then had to turn back and get right one... overall incredibly fun and cant wait to do something like this again!! :D very tired now :P

Warm down with Greta, Jula and Laura and Nelly(the dog) for about 10min, then the last bit with Immy :)
